Merijn van Rooij Eliminated in 5th Place ($67,040)
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
After losing most of his stack in the previous hand, Merijn van Rooij shoved for 1,200,000 from the cutoff and was called by Kirill Shcherbakov out of the big blind.
Merijn van Rooij: Q♥9♥ 
Kirill Shcherbakov: A♥2♣
Van Rooij was behind but had his live cards and hearts working for him. The 10♦10♣8♦ flop gave Van Rooij a straight draw, but the A♣ turn put Shcherbakov firmly in the lead with top pair. A blank 4♣ came on the river, and Van Rooij was out in fifth place.
